Your Itinerary

1) Day 1: Private Tour from Marsa Alam to Edfu, Kom Ombo, and Philae Temples

Begin your day early at 5:00 AM with a convenient pickup from your hotel in Marsa Alam. You will be transported in a private vehicle to Edfu, where you'll explore the magnificent Temple of Horus. This well-preserved site, built during the Ptolemaic period around 246 BC, is dedicated to the hawk-god Horus. Discover intricate wall carvings that depict the mythical struggle between Horus and Seth, likely celebrated as an annual religious drama.

Next, travel to Kom Ombo, located 40 km north of Aswan. Here, you'll visit the unique Temple of Kom Ombo, which honors both the crocodile god Sobek and Horus. This temple dates back to the Ptolemaic and Roman periods (332 BC - 395 AD) and offers a fascinating glimpse into ancient Egyptian worship practices.

Continue your journey to Aswan to visit the stunning Philae Temple, dedicated to the goddess Isis. Construction began around 690 BC, marking it as one of the last temples built in the classical Egyptian style, where the goddess was actively worshipped.

After a day filled with history and exploration, enjoy an overnight stay at the Basma Hotel in Aswan.

Experience the rich cultural heritage of Egypt on this unforgettable journey!
2) Day 2- Unveiling the Majestic Temples: Abu Simbel to Aswan Day Trip from Marsa Alam

Embark on an unforgettable journey from Marsa Alam to the magnificent temples of Abu Simbel, with a seamless all-inclusive experience designed for families, students, and groups. Enjoy an early pick-up at 4:00 AM in an air-conditioned vehicle, ensuring your comfort throughout the 3-hour drive. Arriving before the heat of the day, you’ll be greeted by an expert Egyptologist who will unveil the stories behind these iconic monuments.

Marvel at the Great Temple of Ramesses II, carved from the mountainside during the 13th century BC, and take in the impressive façade featuring four colossal statues of the pharaoh. While the temple honors Amon-Re Horakhty and Ptah, its true purpose celebrates the legacy of Ramses the Great himself. Next, explore the smaller temple dedicated to Queen Nefertari, where you can admire exquisite rock-cut reliefs depicting the royal couple.

After your temple tour, return to Aswan for a visit to the Aswan High Dam-a monumental feat of engineering completed in 1971-and the Unfinished Obelisk, which highlights Aswan's significance as a source of ancient granite.
